DAVID FABER: And when you look at a Rupert Murdoch, do you think you know, at some point, what'll happen there in terms of succession? Another controlled media company, of course, the same way yours are SUMNER REDSTONE: I think Rupert is very smart. He's a great leader.But I think he's made a mistake, my opinion. He's buried in ink. And in my view, there won't be any real newspaper business ten years from now. Fortunately, we're buried in television and movies. They'll be here forever, all over the world. DAVID FABER: You think that's gonna come back to haunt him, his love of newspapers? SUMNER REDSTONE: Well, I'm not and I don't wish him anything bad. I would like him to succeed. But when you pay $5 billion for the Wall Street Journal without competition, it's not so easy to succeed. But he's great. He's a great leader. I'm not knocking him. We have a different point of view. That's all.

Earlier in the interview, Faber floated the idea of merging studios with Fox. DAVID FABER: You know some people say you should just you should sell it, that you could sell it or you could merge it with Rupert's studio. SUMNER REDSTONE: With who? DAVID FABER: And make a lot of money, and get paid a lot of money, cause there's a lot of up side in having a combination of two big studios. SUMNER REDSTONE: Have you ever known me to be motivated by money? DAVID FABER: No, but I know you to be motivated by creating shareholder value. SUMNER REDSTONE: Shareholder value, when it's in the long-term interests of share I never make a decision for the short-term value of our company or for investors. My goal is what's in the long-term interests of investors and our companies. And it's not in the long-term interest of these companies to do what you just suggested. DAVID FABER: Why not? SUMNER REDSTONE: Because we're the best. Why should we merge with less than the best? We are the best companies.
